True story – in September, 1927, one of my father’s sisters took her first solo flight at the age of 18, and did 2 loops and a tailspin on that first solo. The rest of the story is that she spent some time with the other sister in California during the summer of 1927, and took what was called at the time “stunt flying” lessons, then returned to Iowa to solo. Nobody in Iowa knew about the extra lessons in California, though, so the stunts caused a lot of consternation.
